Omar El Deek (Cosi, Cucinetta, Vaporetto and Carboni's) - a tiny powerhouse

When your restaurant isn't working, many owners would look at the menu, wine list, maybe the interior. Omar El Deek instead studied the psychology that underpinned his business, turning a struggling Italian eatery into a tiny powerhouse. We chat about his restaurants - Melbourne's Cosi, Cucinetta and Vaporetto, and Carboni's in Ballarat - and the way he and his partners approach staff training, customer body language and the constant juggling act of costs and pricing. https://www.instagram.com/omar.eldeek/?hl=en Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.
